这是桥上最受瞩目的圣约翰內波穆克(St. John Nepomuk)雕像。据说只要在雕像下的这两块浮雕摸一摸，许个愿，美梦即可成真，并且重游布拉格。我当然‘唔执输’ 的摸了摸这两块金光闪闪的浮雕，把幸运带回家。嘻~嘻~

圣约翰內波穆克•布拉格
布拉格的查理四世桥(Charles Bridge)是欧洲最古老，最长的桥。桥上分别站立了约三十座各式各样的圣徒雕像。

Bone Church•Kutna Hora
About an hour train journey away from Prague city centre is the old town of Kutna Hora, which is famous for its Bone Church. It is an ossuary where the bones and skull of around 40,000 people arranged in an artistic design.
How to go to Ossuary (Bone Church)?
1. Take train from Hlavni Nàdrazi to Brno (about an hour journey).
2. Exit at Kutna Hora train station, take a right and walk up the road towards the main elevated road ahead.
3. Take a left and follow the road until hit the first major church.
4. Directly opposite the church, on the right hand side, there is a small side road.
5. Walk up this road and will reach Bone Church.
We paid 70 Koruna per person for the admission (40 Koruna for the entrance fees + 30 Koruna for the fees to take photos inside the church). It is an amazing bone church. One thing that surprised me was how small the church is and it consists of a wide stairway, leading down to a room with bones of 40,000 people fit inside.
The interior of the church is completely decorated with human bones in the most fascinating patterns. Bones of all shapes and sizes. Besides being piled up, the bones and skulls are used to make chandeliers, crucifixes, bells, decorative coat of arms and other decorations around the church. What really caught my eye were four enormous pyramids located in the centre of the church decorated with piles of skulls and the bones ceiling above these pyramids. There is also a pretty cemetery outside the church.
This was an unbelievable place and is worth to visit. We leave the church with a reminder of how precious life really is.

天文钟•布拉格
捷克首都布拉格是个美丽，古老而旧遢遢的小城。去了之后才发现，传说中的布拉格广场原来是这么小。在广场的旧市政厅外墙上，有座古老的天文钟。
之前上网及从旅游介绍书中了解到这座天文钟的设计者汉努斯在1410年设计完后就被弄瞎了双眼，因为统治者不愿他再设计出如此精美的作品。
这座天文钟有上下两个钟盘，设计原理根据当年的地球中心说。上面的钟是以地球为中心，太阳和月亮绕着转，一年绕行一周；下面的钟是十二星座和农村四季的象征，一天绕行一圈。每逢整点，就有骷髅拉动钟绳，两个窗口打开，耶稣十二门徒的雕像依次从窗前走过，演出迷你默剧，等十一个门徒走完，只有犹大被留在门外，象征处罚他背叛耶稣。
